4 New Trial Ordered.

New YORK, Oct. 26-In July, 1884, the
dry goods firm of Halstead, Haines &
Co., failed for over $1,000,0OG, and
made an assignment for the benefit of
creditors, with preference to the amount
of $500. 900, large amount of which was
to personal friends. On the day of the
failure the liabilities were 81. 40, 900, and
the actual assets S750.000. A number of
creditors of the firm brought suits
through their counsel, John j. Adams,
to set aside the assignment as fraudu-
lent. but after trial before Judge Beach
the complaint was dismissed. The SUI
preme court to-day reversed the lower
courts decision, ordering new trial.

SAYS the New York He,ald "Mr. Henry
W. Grady spoke of the President as the
foremost ruler of the earth Right you
are, Mr., Grady, There is not monarch
on the globe who has half the responsible
tiles OF the man who presides over the de-
alterations of the American people
Right you are not, Mr., Grady. The Presi-
dent is in no sense ruler. He il the
chief officer Of the nation, with duties APP
pointed within specific bounds, beyond
which he may not go. He neither gov
erns nor rules. There is but one ruler in the
American Republic-the will of the people
That is the chief and only power and au-
thority; there is none above or behind it
on earth. The President is its instrument
to the extent of his specifically described
executive functions, and these in no sense
constitute him a ruler. The phrase cred
tied to Mr.. Grady is common and often
used in exaltation of the chief magistracy
but it is bit of gush, and has no truth in
it, and is pardonable perhaps only because
Of its sentimental quality.

Another point / wish for information upon.
Does the bill intend that all expense and cost OF

PHILADELPHIA Inquirer: This week the United
States Supreme Court is expected to decide
whether certain Chicago murder cases are to be
hung up with red tape or plain manila rope.
1t is to decide, in fact whether the man
who murders by thrust under the ribs
to snatch purse, is any more guilty than
the fellow who throws Russian Anarchist
bomb at the free institutions of America,
and murders the servants of the Govern
ment while doing duty in preserving the
peace. According to Professor Adler, Rev.
Blake and Robert Ingersoll, the Ausrchist
villain exalts his crime to degree that
entities him to immunity, because he does
not employ the pistol, the bludgeon or the
the blade.

THE Democratic party in New York will
try issues for office at the polls on
the Sth instant. There are five candi-
dates upon the ticket. Not one served
in the Union army, though four
were old enough to have done so. On
the other hand the Republican ticket is
led by soldier and the son of our greatest
soldier, and the chief, and the only objection
to him is that he is no talker. Possibly
neither was the General, but somehow he
had way of doing things effectively, ard
with straightforward vigor mere gabblers
can never conceive of. The son probably
inherits the marked traits of silence and
resolution that so distinguished his father.

CARQUINEZ STRAITS.

W. NJ. Ryder, III the San Francisco
Bulletin, recently took the position that
the Straits of Carquinez have not sufficient
capacity in flood seasons to pass the waters
of the valley discharging into Suisun Bay.
He therefore protests against the improve
ments along the Carquinez shores, as likely
to still further decrease the discharging
capacity of the Straits, since when the
Sacramento and San Joaquin are full the
egress Of the waters, he alleges, is SO i'm
peded that a rise of the water level in
Suisun Bay follows. The Martinez (Con-
ira Costa Gazette takes issue with Mr..
Ryder. 1t declares that at the time of the
highest water ever known in the rivers
there was no perceptible rise in Suisun
Bay. 1t says:
There is not a particle of foundation for the
assertion that the Straits have not the capacity
TO pass the water at any time without '.raising
the water OF Suisun Bay" The most careful
observation has failed TO detect the Slightest
difference in the average hight of the water at
this point during the heaviest floods The Sni
sun bay IS vast reservoir, capable of receiving
the waters of all the streams to which il affords
an outlet, while the great depth of the Straits
conveys it to the sea without perceptlbly TAXING
Its capacity. 1t is true the currents are strong
have been there is not particle of evidence,
and, indeed, considering the carrying capacity
OF the channel the supposition is absurd
At the time of the high waters in 1862
no piling was in the Straits at all. Since
then the rivers have carried greater floods,
and yet no difficulty was observable at Car
quinez, although considerable piling and
wharfing were then in place on both sides
of the Straits. 1t is easily understood
why San Francisco should feel jealous of
the commercial development at Carquinez
Straits; but, in fact, whatever growth
takes place at the latter point contributes
to the commercial importance of the for
mer. The fears entertained at San Fran
cisco are no: justified by proofs that the
discharge capacity of the Straits is being
lessened. The filling of the rivers by NV
draulic mining debris might well engage
more attention at San Francisco than il
does, but so far as the channel of the
straits at Benicia is concerned, the waters
go through without being retarded in any
degree worthy of attention by the docks
erected there. The development all around
the bay region will scarcely be stayed by any
objections raised at San Francisco; it comes
in the natural order of things, and nothing
San Francisco can do will or should check
1t. Her Importance is beyond reach of
any assault by other bay points Her in
terest should be the encouragement of all
legitimate interior development, since it
all contributes to the commercial impor-
lance of the great metropolis.
